(Photo by Hodges) Bayfield Church Service; Remebrance Day Sunday (By our Bayfield correspondent) The First Bayfield Company Girl Guide colour party led the parade of Guides and 20 veterans of two world wars to Trinity Church on Sunday morning for the Remembrance Day service. Margaret Wallis was bearer, sup- ported by Ruthann Scotchmer and Cathy Welsh. They formed up outside the Albion Hotel under Mrs. George Adams (captain). The Brownies and Tweenies under Mrs. J. B. Higgins (Brown Owl) and Mrs. R. Turner (Tawny Owl) fell in at the church. The colours were received by the rector and placed on the altar. The honour rolls were in the front windows and the church was beautifully decorated with flowers contributed by Mrs. George Hop- son and others in memory of fal- len heroes. Mr. Outerbridge's soul -stirring serinon was a call to the careless and thoughtless' to return to God; to remember that they had a duty towards God; to witness, for Him in worship and support of the Christian church, that those who had paid the supreme sacrifice for the Christian ideals of our country might not have died in vain. Said the speaker: "There is a poem called the Hound of Heaven which reminds me of Remem- brance Sunday. It's a very beauti- ful poem and it describes a man's fruitless attempt to escape God. It starts: "I fled Him, down the nights and I down the days; I fled Him, down the arches of the years; I fled Him, down the labyrinthine ways Of my own mind; and in the midst of tears I hid from Him, and under run- ning laughter. Up vistaed hopes, I sped; And shot, precipitated, Adown Titanic glooms of charm- ed fears, From the Strong Feet that fol- lowed, followed after. But with unhurrying chase, And unperturbed pace, Deliberate speed, majestic inst- ancy, They ]Seat—and a voice beat More intent than the feet: 'Ail things betray thee, who be- trayest Me'." "So man cannot escape from God. Many have found it so — remenrber a delightful illustration of this truth in the story of Jonah, how he tried to run away to Tarshish and couldn't escape God even in the belly of the whale." He pointed out that we live in a St. Andrew's WA The November meeting of the Woman's Association of St. And- rew's United Church was held at the home of Mrs. J. MacKenzie and was opened by the WA creed in unison. The president read a short poem followed by a reading by the secretary entitled "Willing Service." The president thanked all the ladies who had helped in the fair booth. The ladies who wish to offer their homes for 1956 meetings are to notify the president at the next meeting. A nominating committee was chosen to appoint a new slate of officers for 1956. The Rev. Peter Renner gave a talk on the organizing of Cubs and Boy Scout troops and asked for a donation. Each church is being asked to contribute to this. The collection was received after which the president closed the meeting with a reading, "A Little Grace". The next meeting will be held a week earlier on November 24 at the home of the Rev, and Mrs. P. Renner. .4...•s-.-.•+•.++-r�+ STANLEY Mr. and Mrs. Victor Taylor, vis- ited in London over the weekend. Mrs. Norman Baird .spent the weekend in St. Catharines, visit- ing her sister, Mrs. Robert Varley. Mr. and Mrs. Walter Baird, Mrs, Catherine Taylor and Mrs. Myrtle Bossenberry visited for a few days in Buffalo with Mr. and Mrs. William Rice. Christian country, yet there are thousands who do not worship God, do not pray regularly, are not associated with any Christian church. Some seem to be good citizens, lead moral lives, con- tribute to charities and so on. But they are not Christians. "Because so many try so des- perately to run from God the Christian Church has lost much of the influence it had years ago." The speaker traced the. losing influence of the church in the past 400 years, due to human sin. "Today," said Mr. Outerbridge, "we are the last to be consulted. Every other expediency except religion is used to solve problems —politics, economics, science are all matters for religion but today you would never know it.

Bayfield_'correspondent). nets about ten minutes run south The local fishermen didnot suf- fer too greatly from Thursday's. storm. Those who had nets out. recovered them the next day and. it is thought that they are not too badly. damaged. Two Grand Bend fishermen, Louis Ravelle and Bruce - Tyder man are fishing out of Bayfield for perch but the run is very light this year. Bad luck seems to have dogged the Lake Huron fishermen since early spring — at least on this shore, The Vary Brothers, owned by Ed Sidell, has not been into Bay- field harbour since October 1, and then she dragged on bottom all the way up the river. The water level is. very low at present and so has been docking in Goderich harbour.

It was shifting suddenly from south to sou -west and west. After .lifting the nets they were' proceeding north to lift more set about 20 minutes run north of Goderich, Itwas then that they got caughtin the gale. The Denny Boy lost a steel tray. The wood- en gangway doors of the Vary. Brothers and' five windows in this '70 foot steel tug were smashed in.. So they bath put into port. There was such a heavy sea running` that ' the waves were washing• right over the. blinker on that nor'west breakwater: Both boats recovered the re- mainder of their nets the follow- ing day but they won't know the extent of the damage until they. are dried out. The Vary Brothers is now hav- ing new steel doors installed and the windows repaired. The S,S.•Ericson put into Gode- rich harbour the night before the. storm. A recent report in a dairy paper that the "Vary Brothers" and the "Danny Boy" (owned by Mac- Donald) had each lost 81,000 worth of nets in last Thursday's blow Was exaggerated,.
